06:15 Linn16    I am trying to get started on contributing to this project. I have compiled luanti using MSYS2 under Windows. While trying to get a good understanding of the code's structure. I have attempted to enable a high debug log level by modifying the minetest.conf file. Yet, I noticed that the logs do not change. The only way for me to modify the logs is
06:15 Linn16    through passing another argument onto the executable : ./luanti.exe --verbose. I also have tried the following command : ./luanti.exe --config ../minetest.conf and it did not work either.
07:11 MTDiscord <herowl> sfan5: Looks like the metatable detection code has a bug: https://git.minetest.land/VoxeLibre/VoxeLibre/issues/5040
07:12 MTDiscord <herowl> See this loop: https://git.minetest.land/VoxeLibre/VoxeLibre/src/commit/042fc3fc60faeb4c572277b7b68d4bae31d78ce0/mods/ITEMS/mcl_potions/potions.lua#L870
07:13 MTDiscord <herowl> It's a compat item, to convert old things into new ones. We're not adding any metatables to them, and certainly not to that once specifically.
08:36 sfan5     well i dont know how "getmetatable(foo) ~= nil" could possibly have a bug
08:36 sfan5     you can try yourself
10:24 sfan5     ah wait I think I know
10:24 sfan5     if you register using the same table twice the engine will detect its own metatable
10:29 MTDiscord <herowl> sfan5: Do I really have to table.copy() all the time if it is literally the same table?

10:52 sfan5     @herowl no
11:08 sfan5     its a bug then
12:03 MTDiscord <goodclover> somewhat surprised to see hole-punching had never even been mentioned before on the issue tracker
12:05 MTDiscord <josiah_wi> Linn16, I'm not a core dev, but welcome!
12:09 MTDiscord <josiah_wi> Which settings did you try in minetest.conf to change the debugging level? It looks like you can configure the logging level for debug.txt and for chat messages, but perhaps not for the messages printed to the terminal.
